Bill Cosby has been hit with yet another lawsuit accusing him of sexual assault, this time by a woman who claims the comedian drugged her during an encounter that occurred more than 50 years ago.
According to TMZ, the suit was filed by Donna Motsinger, who claims to have met him in 1972 while employed as a waitress at the Trident restaurant in California.
The alleged victim says after becoming acquainted with Cosby, she accepted an invitation to attend his comedy show at the Circle Star Theater.
According to her recollection, she was picked up in a limo and given a glass of wine, which she says made her sick by the time she arrived at his dressing room.
She claims that Cosby then handed her what she thought was an aspirin, but fell unconscious soon after, leading her to believe she was drugged.
Motsinger says she woke up the next morning at her home with her underwear on. She is suing Cosby for emotional distress.
The comedian’s attorney, Andrew Wyatt, has since released a statement seemingly denying the allegations, deeming them as baseless.
“No comment at this present time because this is utterly ridiculous and pointless,” Wyatt told TMZ.
Earlier this summer, Cosby was sued after nine women accused him of sexually assaulting them in various incidents that occurred over the span of 13 years.
The lawsuit, which was filed in Nevada federal court in June 2023, claims Cosby “used his enormous power, fame, and prestige” to assault them.
The women alleged that Cosby drugged them during encounters that took place between 1979 and 1992 in homes, dressing rooms, and hotels across Nevada.
